The medication semaglutide was developed to treat type 2 diabetes but has been found to be highly effective for weight loss as well. It works by mimicking GLP-1, a hormone that regulates appetite and hunger. Semaglutide enhances feelings of fullness and reduces hunger, helping you take in fewer calories to lose weight more effectively.
Most fad diets and self-managed diet plans tend to be radical invasions of our usual eating habits, so it’s no surprise they often fail.
Once you’ve deprived yourself of the food you enjoy, you’re left unsatisfied and unmotivated, making it almost impossible to keep up with your diet long-term. Furthermore, most diet plans also lack the personalized approach you need to meet your individual nutritional needs, making them ineffective in the long run.
The semaglutide treatment involves a simple, once-weekly injection that you can administer yourself at home. The injection is usually administered in the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm. Most patients find the process easy and convenient, allowing them to maintain their regular routine without disruption. Your treatment plan will be customized by our wellness specialists to ensure optimal dosing and effectiveness.
At AlluraMD, we believe your aesthetic journey should be as enjoyable as it is transformative. We're not your typical sterile doctor's office. We've cultivated a playful, positive, and polished environment that feels more like a spa day with your friends than a medical appointment. Book online or call now (561) 501-0203
